ŌKAMI
Ōkami is an action-adventure game set in classical Japan. It was developed by Clover Studio and published by Capcom, recieving its first release for the Playstation 2 in 2006. It was one of the last Playstation 2 games released, consequently suffering from poor sales. In spite of this, it's been considered one of the best video games ever made.
Since then, the game has been remastered for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC. The official website can be found here.

ŌKAMI・[OFFICIAL] GARYOUTENSEI FILM DVD BOOK (画龍点睛 大神フィルムDVDブック)
The ŌKAMI・[OFFICIAL] GARYOUTENSEI FILM DVD BOOK (画龍点睛 大神フィルムDVDブック) is described as the following from where I purchased a copy of the book:
"The book portion largely covers the myths and tales the game draws on for inspiration, looking at both the original material and how it was then adapted into Ōkami.
This is split into four chapters – Japanese gods, folklore, miscellaneous information, and finally, Ainu myth. Each one looks at major and minor characters from the game and gives a brief overview of their place in Japanese lore.
Chapter breaks are given over to “Ōkami News”, Issun’s newspaper. These are written in character and contain items like little news stories and adverts (again in character). The final one looks at the differences between the original Japanese names and the English translations.
The Ainu chapter, in addition to the character/myth related information of the other chapters, also includes a short segment on Ainu pronunciations for a few Ōkami-relevant words such as “Thank you” “Mountain” “Sun” and the four seasons. The included DVD is a 95 minute video that recaps the entire story of Ōkami using video created from in-game cutscenes. The DVD has the option of watching the entire film seamlessly or watching a particular scene."
This book was purchased by myself on eBay and scanned using a CanoScan LIDE 300.

ŌKAMI・[UNOFFICIAL] COOKBOOK — Dry, Harvey
The ŌKAMI・[UNOFFICIAL] COOKBOOK is a fan-made Ōkami cookbook. I originally wasn't going to share this because it was an impulsive purchase and is full of (what I presume is) stolen artwork, but some people requested to see it, so here it is. The page for it has been taken down, but here's a link anyway.
